Journal ArticleDOI
Review of FDTD time-stepping schemes for efficient simulation of electric conductive media
TL;DR: The time-backward (TB), the time-forward, and time-average (TA), and the exponential time-differencing (ETD) time-stepping schemes of the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method for the efficient simulation of electric conductive media are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Automatic rectangle-based adaptive mesh generation without obtuse angles
TL;DR: The mesh generator MESHBUILD, which produces meshes with no obtuse angles for structures with reasonably complex geometries, is described, which is suitable for use in automatic grid generation and includes an interactive graphics interface.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new discretization scheme for the semiconductor current continuity equations
TL;DR: A hybrid finite-element method to discretize the continuity equation in semiconductor device simulation is given, finding that the method works in any dimension and for (d-dimensional) simplexes as well as for quadrilaterals, bricks, prisms, and so on, although the authors have no proof that it will not break down in particular cases.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Strain-dependence of electron transport in bulk Si and deep-submicron MOSFETs
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the strain dependence of FET performance in the nonlinear operation regime by full-band Monte Carlo (FBMC) simulation and investigate how this behaviour is related to the corresponding transport properties in strained bulk Si.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
VINCI: VLSI implementation of the new secret-key block cipher IDEA
TL;DR: The VLSI chip implements data encryption and decryption in a single hardware unit and is the first silicon block encryption device that can be applied to on-line encryption in high-speed networking protocols like ATM or FDDI (Fiber Distributed Data Interface).
